Abstract
This chapter aims to explore the associated post-conflict reconstruction challenges through identifying the links and interdependencies between conflict, post conflict and post-conflict reconstruction, based on a comprehensive literature survey and review (reports, journal articles and conference papers) carried out on conflicts and post-conflict reconstruction. The chapter starts with an introduction to conflicts identifying their causes and impact. The next section describes the conflict circle followed by an introduction to the post-conflict environment. The last section is focused on post-conflict reconstruction through identifying key activities, challenges and dilemmas. A summary of the chapter is provided at the end.
